Kyle hurried to join him. She was unconscious and obviously been beaten and cut, just as Kyle had been. “Russo’s work,” Kyle said angrily.

Brax was already on the phone. When he hung up, he said, “I have a friend who runs a clinic for our kind. He’s willing to help, even though she’s human.” He gave Kyle the visual, then carefully gathered Ms. Grant into his arms. Seconds later, they were in a well-equipped exam room at the clinic.

Brax and Kyle left, Brax going to the small nurses’ station to talk to one of the women. She nodded, hurrying to the exam room.

“Doc Wilson knows what he’s doing,” Brax assured Kyle, taking the chair next to him.

“Why did Russo go after her?” Kyle asked.
